28.5.2 Regular Expressions in Black or White List Entries
The following applies for a black or white list entry based on an e-mail subject, e-mail address, or
e-mail header value.
• Use a question mark (?) to let a single character vary. For example, use “a?c” (without the
quotation marks) to specify abc, acc and so on.
• You can also use a wildcard (*). For example, if you configure *def.com, any e-mail address that
ends in def.com matches. So “mail.def.com” matches.
• The wildcard can be anywhere in the text string and you can use more than one wildcard. You
cannot use two wildcards side by side, there must be other characters between them.
• The USG checks the first header with the name you specified in the entry. So if the e-mail has
more than one “Received” header, the USG checks the first one.

tab to display the Anti-Spam White List screen.
Configure the white list to identify legitimate e-mail. You can create white list entries based on the
sender’s or relay’s IP address or e-mail address. You can also create entries that check for
particular header fields and values or specific subject text.
